Paramedics from Toronto Emergency Medical Services responding to large-scale
medical emergencies or evacuations will be able to rely on the new high-tech
ambulance bus and the new multi-purpose support truck which are being unveiled
for the public and the media on Monday.

Emergency Support Unit (ESU) vehicles are deployed to support paramedics in the
treatment and transportation of patients from multi-casualty disasters,
accidents or evacuations. The new vehicles are replacing older vehicles as part
of an ongoing fleet maintenance and replacement program.

Members of the media are invited to take a ride in the new ambulance bus and to
see a demonstration of the emergency response capabilities of the new support
truck and bus.
